A project log for NomadStep: Modular motor controllers

Control 2 x n motors through CAN over one UART channel

Basic dynamic control over CAN bus complete, each board will discover and self-assign its position in a series. Currently you can only connect to a board at a end of a series for the dynamic addressing to work. An additional wire is required for this addressing. This increases the number of wires between boards to 5, POWER, CAN + 1 wire.

UART has been tested with the Launchpad boards but not with a custom board because UART0 has not been broken out for some reason on the Launchpad.
